The document discusses various theories of intelligence including Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which identifies eight types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, visual-spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. It also discusses theories that identify three dimensions of intelligence: fluid and crystallized intelligence, and visual-spatial intelligence. Additionally, the document outlines different components of IQ, cognitive styles such as field dependent and field independent, thinking styles such as analytics vs holistics, and learning styles including active vs reflective learners and mastery vs understanding learners.

21. Field Independent vs Field Dependent
Easily separates
important details
from a complex or
confusing
background
Rely on them selves
and their own
thought-system
when solving
problems
Finds difficulty to
see parts in a whole
Approaches
to
environment
in an
analytical or
global
fashion
Rely on other’s ideas
when solving
problems and good
in interpersonal
relationships
Have greater social
orientation

attention
• Variations in remembering that pertain to
the distinctiveness of memory
• Individual inconsistencies in speed and
adequacy
• Differences to categorize perceived
similarities among stimuli in terms of
separate concepts
